180's / MTT's Grind.
Hey Everyone,
I am low stakes 180's / MTT Grinder. Currently playing 3.50R - 180's and MTT's up to 11$. Mine main goal is to beat 3R and have atleast 40% ROI there. I am member in Tournament Poker Edge so im giving about 1-2 Hours everyday for watching videos.
I'm currently playing on stake, trying to build my bankroll. I need 3.5k$ bankroll for myself, so I have to make 7k$ In profit to end the stake and start playing on my own.
I am bbasically playing for a living, I'm living at my parents house, but helping them to pay bills and not taking any cent from them. So I will be making some small cashouts.
Playing 5day a week - Sunday to Thursday.
I am spending my freetime with my gf and friends.
GOALS :
@ Shorterm goals :
* 7k$ Profit. [Stake End]
* Gold Star. [For More FPP's]
* Longer sessions. [Currently my evening session is 6hours long]
* Hit MTT for atleast 4 Figures.
* Try to play 1k Games / Month.
@ Longterm goals :
* Keep Motivation.
* Don't be lazy and study hard.
* 10k$ On my own profit till July.
* Be a Shark in other players notes. 
* Run GOOD! 
* Keep this blog.
@ Non Poker Goals :
* Be a better person.
* Do some sports 3 times a week.v
* Eat more healthy food.
* Improve my English.
Graphs :
@ 3R Lifetime :
1,229 $1.49 $10 15% $1,827
Started being completly new to these games, but I think I am getting better right now.
3R 180's Stats in 2012 :
190 $5.56 $10 56% $1,056
MTT's :
------
So that's it, lets grind !

Re: 180's / MTT's Grind.
Worry more about what your bb is rather than chips. Your cEV is skewed by how you are running in later levels.

Re: 180's / MTT's Grind.
40% ROI in the 3 Rebuys seems a bit high. Also is it SS-ROI(SS counts avg. number of rebuys which favors regs slightly) or is realroi?
In either way that goal is pretty hard and there are only a handful who are good enough for this.

I think it's avg ROI and yes the goal of 40%+ ROI is pretty hard, but I will try to do me best to achieve it.
Going to do HH review of my few deep MTT's runs and then starting evening session, hopefully gonna run good and make some profit.
Gl everyone

Re: 180's / MTT's Grind.
Hey guys, sorry for no report yesterday, had some internet connection problems which affected mine played game count as well.
So about todays session, I had two deep runs :
20th Place in 1R 7k TURBO, 1.7k 1st prize - [Big POT] QQ vs TT vs 55, River 5 and im shortstack then A6 vs QJ and thats it.
32th Place in 2R 10k Turbo, 3.2k 1st prize - Had avg stack, pushed ATs and ran in to QQ.
So I'm pretty upset about today, also didnt got scores in 3R Sng's ran pretty bad on them. Gonna do some HH Review tomorrow of both 3R's and MTT's, I think I'm improving my game, but obviously have some leaks so gonna try to find them tomorrow.
Here overall graph of this month :
I'm still have 4 tables running :
FT of 3R SNG : 1/5
3R SNG : 3/31
3R : 2x AVG stack
16.5 Turbo 27k. 4.1k Stack, AVG 2.6
Hope I can hit something.
I will edit this post after they will finish.
------
Games for January 16/17 : 67
Profit/Loss : -$549
Overall
Games : 192
Profit/Loss : +1687.7
EDIT :
Finished 2nd and 4th in 3R
Overall Profit/Loss : +2138.7
Gonna get some sleep, see ya guys gl
